Author's Note: I decided to not write anymore about Alexa. Instead, this is about Alexa's daughter Katelyn.

Welcome to My Side of the River

Sonya

Kate's POV

I stared out over the palace wall, exploring the kingdom with just my eyes.

My name is Princess Katelyn Batchelder. I am a genetic experiment.

Not directly, of course. But both of my parents were, and same with my extended family.

My father, Prince Iggy, was experimented on, and formed a close bond with the Flock, who eventually escaped.

I don't know how my mother, Princess Alexa, escaped. She never mentions it. But I think she used her alter-ego, Nyx, to help her get out of there.

Princess Max eventually married Prince Fang. Now, both of them rule the kingdom of Krikia. They have a son, Crown Prince Silence, who is my best friend. I call him Sil for short. Ella's daughter, Princess Kaila, is another good friend of mine.

Ella, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel all got married also, to royalty of neighboring kingdoms. But all of them still live here.

But enough about the past. Time to tell about the present.

I am 15 years old, with my mother's green eyes and pale skin, and my father's red hair. I do have wings, which are dark brown.

My powers: I can see the future. Whenever I get a vision, my green eyes turn gray for some unexplainable reason. I am not in control of my body at this point. Then, I tell a prophecy, which always comes to pass. When I come out of my trance, I won't remember my prophecy, which can be a hassle if I'm alone.

Aside from that, I can manipulate my aura. Nothing too special.

Sil looks just like his dad. He can turn invisible, create force fields, and fly at supersonic speeds. I could tell him anything.

The sound of a snapping twig interrupted my reverie. "Sil, I know you're there." I called.

"Darn." Sil reappeared. "I almost had you that time." He looked exactly like his father did at that age. At least, that's what my mother told me.

He climbed up next to me. "We have the Suitor's Ball tonight."

I groaned. The Suitor's Ball was basically a gigantic, fancy party where matchmaking mothers tried to hook up their children with the royal children. "As long as Damien Harp isn't there this year, I'm fine." Damien Harp was the most disgusting, ugly, vile-mannered person I'd ever met. He was also the Crown Prince of the neighboring land of Farene.

He grimaced. Sil didn't like Damien any more than I did, which is to say, not at all. "Avoid him if you can. If you can't, then come over to me. I'll make you invisibe."

Oh, I could also mimic another's powers for a short period of time. But that would mean… "You won't be able to, then. And you'll have the most attention."

"It would be worth it. I don't want to lose you to the evil idiot."

I shuddered at the sudden bleakness in his voice. "That won't happen."

At least, I hoped it didn't.
